Carl-E:
I don't thnk that first guy was Angus. He really didn't seem pleased with the sass, and he seemed like an older guy who was actually used to service. Same hair color is about all. I'd believe it if he muttered something like, "Christ, why do I keep coming here?" as he stalked away.
The second one, maybe. Same glasses. Seems more like Jeph adopted a crowd member into the cast!
Then suddenly - bushy sideburns, argyle sweater, argumentative - ya think he's got some Scottish name orrrr something, laddie?
Stereotyping - interfering with character development since Homo Sapiens first met a Neanderthal!
Heliphyneau:
Hmm, I think the potential creepiness in panel one stems from the fact that Hanners' knife is pointed outward toward Marten's general crotchal region. But she doesn't have her stabby-face on, so she's non-threatening. I had forgotten all about DJ Phalliz -- thanks for the reminder, Akima!
I'm looking forward to seeing Winslow as master of ceremonies over bad YouTube night. He's one of the few characters who still retains some innocence. Although having said that, I wonder if the "bad YouTube" featured will include all or part of the Star Wars Holiday Special . . . Seriously, watching that whole thing is like a rite of passage, or maybe one of the circles of hell.
raoullefere:
The thing that troubles me is this: who answers their door knife in hand? Obviously, Hanners was about to sacrifice open the melon when Marten rang, knocked, or what-have-you. Normal behavior would be to sigh, put down the knife, and then go to the door.
Of course, I was taught as a child (nevermind how) not to walk around with sharp objects in my hand. Perhaps, in space, no one cares what you puncture.

They don't know she's coming. Note Marten made sure Hannelore was coming before he made his request. Awfully polite fellow, that Marten. Doesn't say 'Hello, Hanners, how are you, and why have you got a knife in your hand, for the love of god, don't stab me, think of Dora—she'd really fuck you up if you did that, you know. I heard that Vespavenger chick still doesn't walk right."
Border Reiver:
Maybe its me, but when carrying a knife I either carry it point down, edge facing back or in the sheath.
Anyway, somehow Hanners with a knife, even an 8-10" chopping knife (which is what she appears to have here) doesn't scare me.
Is it cold in here?:

That is why the way to a man's heart is through his stomach.
